PREKACE. 



The object of this book is to «:ive to teachers a complete system of 
work, based upon purely educational principles, extendiujic from the kinder- 
garten through the high school ; a system that has been tried with success in 
some of the best schools, and pronounced most excellent by leading educa- 
tors of the countr}' ; a system, too, that the best educated mechanics con- 
sider sound and practic»M as ^eU as progressive. Moreover, it is a system 
thi^t will set teachers to thinking and inventing for themselves ; and, while 
it will give them an opportunity to learn how to make correctly with tools 
the models preparatory to teaching, it will cause them to see the vital 
connection between the Manual Training and the other school work. 

Moreover, it is a system that teaches the fundamental principles of 
of drawing, designing, and constniction and also the correct use of all kinds 
of wood- working and forging tools. 

The first exercises in this work are so simple that they can be per- 
formed by any child In the lowest prinvary classes, and are so graded in 
numl:)er, form and drawing as to meet successfully its intellectual growth 
from day to day. 

The lx)ok is the outcome of many yeai*s experience in teaching and 
study with the foremost teachers in the United States and P^urope ; and its 
chief pur|)08e is to show that Manual Training, in its best forms, can be 
introihiced into the schools of every city, town, and village with success 
and at comparatively small expense. 

The author wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to Mr. Geo. W. 
Whittemore, Assistant blaster in the Waltham Manual Training School for 
valuable help in arranging the exercises and models in the forge shop.

INTRODUCTION. 



In the preparation of a system of manual training, the educator 
should have for his end and aim the educational value of the work. 
He should also know, and come in such close contact with other 
school work, that he will see the importance of manual training, and be 
able, through existing circumstances and conditions, to see and make the 
connection between it and all other subjects in the school. 

The first step, as shown in the kindergarten, nmst be to train the 
powers of observation, producing new growth in the mental organism. 
This is done with exercises of placing, putting, building, — leading up 
to drawing and construction. These are also forcible means in training 
the imagination, and inventive skill, and are invaluable lessons in language, 
number, form and geometry. 

There itre many kinds of work, founded on or develoi)ed from the 
kindergarten occupations that will serve for the purpose of manual training, 
with drawing as a comix)nent part of each. In drawing, the eye is 
rendered more accurate, and the hand is brought more completely under the 
will than by any other exercise ; but in itself it is not sufficient, it must l>e 
supplemented by its application to work in paper, carti-board, wood and 
other material, and in the making from the drawing that which the drawing 
represents. 

Because paper-work has been used to a great extent in the kindergarten 
and in the home, it is lH»st, perhaps, to begin with it in the first primary,

4 ' INTRODUCTION. 

keeping iu mind that the work must form the basis and material for a great 
many lessons iu attention, language, number, form-drawing, reading and 
writing ; and that the article made should be of such a form and nature, and 
so systematically arranged that there will be a steady growth in all phases 
of the work. 

"But just what shall I do? what can the children make? how can 
these things l)e made ? what insti-uments and tools would thev need ? iiow 
can number, language, etc., be taught with it?" These are questions 
often asked by teachers. 

No teacher should feel conllned to a certain set of models, but rather, 
let the desired exercises be embodied in a good model original with the 
pupil or teacher, being careful to keep the general trend of thought the 
same. The first series of diagrams will show models antl exercises that 
have been used in Boston schools with success. 

For a room of fifty-six pui)ils the following tools and material would 
be needed : One thousand sheets of white or colored paper, and about the 
constituency of good writing paper, cut accurately eight inches square. 
Obtain this from some wholesale house, sending sample and dimensions ; a 
few ounces of worsted, the colors selected being such that will blend with 
the colors of the paper ; fifty-six hard wood, one foot rulers one and three- 
eighths inches wide, with beveled edge and graduated into one inch, one- 
half inch, one quarter inch, one-eighth inch spaces ; fifty-six lead pencils 
('* Dixon's American Graphite, M," is good), with fine point; fifty-six 
rubber erasers ; fifty-six pairs goo 1 pencil dividers, that can be easily 
adjusted ; fifty-six pairs good six inch scissors ; fifty-six darning needles. 
All these, excepting the ppper, can be kept in a neatly made cloth case, 
with an apartment for each tool and kind of material, and can be rolled up 
or hung on the inside of a closet-door.

EDUCATIONAL MANUAL TRAINING 



PART. I. —PAPER WORK. 

Example No. 1- — Have the children sit squarely in their 
seats, both feet on the floor. Have them hold up their right hands, 
left hands, the index finger of right and left hands. Have them 
touch with an index finger the front edge of their desks, which is 
the edge next to them ; the same exercise with the back, right, and 
left edges, the back right corner, the back left, front right, and front 
left. Begin here by having the children, one at a time, give 
directions. 

Example No. 2. — Choose as many pupils as there are rows 
of seats, selecting those who need the training the most, and have 
them help in giving out the work. Have a certain place for every 
thinor and teach their name and uses as thev are <riven out, and let it 
be done in the following manner : Hold up a ruler before the pupils, 
write the word on the board, and have them speak the word, then 
will the ruler, the written and oral word be associated in the mind. 



8 SLOYD. 

The work should be given out in the following order : Place the 
paper on the desks so that one of its edges will be parallel with and 
about two inches from the front ed<re of the desk and directly in 
front of you. Now repeat with the paper Example Xo. 1. 

Example No- 3. — Take up the rulers, find the long mark 
near Fig. 1. 

Question, — How far is it from there to the nearest corner? 

Answer, -One inch. (Repeat this with two inches, three 
inches, and four inches.) Have them see that the corner of the 
ruler most used is where the one inch begins. Place the corner 
of the niler on the back left corner of the paper and have the edge 
of the ruler parallel with the back edge of the paper ; then place a 
fine point on the paper directly below the four inch mark, with the 
pencil held in a vertical position. 

Question. — How far is the point from the back left corner? 

Answer. — Four inches. 

Question. — How far is it from the back right corner? 

Answer. — Four inches. 

Question. — What have you done to the edge? 

Ansioer. — Bisected it, or divided it into two equal parts. 

Question. — What shall we call the point? 

Answer. — The middle point, or point of bisection. 
The pupils now bisect the other edges of their paper. 



SLOYD. 



Example No- 4. — Teach now opposite edges, opposite 
corners and points. Place the ruler so that the edge shall connect 
the point in the back edge with the point in the front edge. To 
hold the ruler tinnly, divide it into thirds with the thumb and the 
fore and middle finger. Hold the pencil as you are taught to hold 
the pen, then join with a line the points connected by the ruler, 
beginning at the back ; join the remaining opposite points, beginning 
at the left in drawing the line.

Part IL Card-board Work, 



FUNDAMENTAL FORMS AND MODIFICATIONS. 



Tools and material needed. — A drawinjr board; some rulers, 
pencils, erasers, shears and dividers, as were used in the paper 
series ; as many sharp-pointed shoe knives as there are pupils ; 
one-half dozen ten cent cans of Le Page's Li(iuid Glue ; one thous- 
and sheets of white paper, the same as in other scries, cut twelve 
inches l)v seventeen inches ; one thousand sheets of white card- 
board, of good quality and a little thicker than a postal card, cut 
twelve bv fourteen inches. Send to some wholesale house for 
samples, and have the cutting done by them. 

The object of this work is to hel[), in an intense degree, in 
teaching the many subjects that have to do in a direct way with 
number and fonn, and forms the basis of future calculations. 

This is tauirht intuitivelv and with a <2rreat deal of interest, as 
the pui)ils think and work out their thoughts. Instead of memoriz- 
ing rules that others have made through investigation and thought. 



2« 



SLOVD 



tlicy make their own rules, compile their own arithmetic and 
geometry. 

The models heinjr made of white card-board, renders them very 
valuable as a series of models for tlrawing, and therefore saves the 
cost of a set made of plaster or wood. 

The pupils can invent many modifications of these forms, and 
no matter how far advanced a class mav be in number and form 
work, these models will alwavs be found useful material. 

ft 

Such as the following can be given in square and cubic 
measure : Make a box to contain nine cubic inches. Make a box 
of ditterent shape to contain the same number of cubic inches. 

This is also valuable work for the teaching of concise and cor- 
rect English^ and the pupils become acciuainted with the use of 
tenns that are best learned in connection with real work. 

The work is done with thicker and tougher material than was 
used in the paper series, and one sees that, in order to do the work, 
it requires all the skill of hand and mind formerly accjuired, and a 
systematic growth in both. 

To test the real grow^th of ideas and skill of hand, free hand 
dmwing should be taught in connection with it, and also have them 
draw the same diagrams of the card-board forms on i)aper, free 
hand^ then cut and fold. 

As the models are arranged in the series one can trace the 
growth of one form from another, but in some cases forms that 
should ccmie early in the series are put in later, on account of the 



SLOYD. 



29 



difficulties in making ; but in such cases they can be made of paper 
in their true position, and afterwards in card-board. 



MODEL No. 1. — CUBE. 



Present a cube to the chiss, and develop the idea of its form 
when unfolded, as with the cube in the paper series. 

This series of models being entirely closed on all sides, it is 
necessary that there shall be laps or margins, adhering to the sides 
for gluing. Have the pupils tell how many laps are needed, and 
where. When this is clear in the minds of the pupils, erase what 
mav have l)een drawn on the blackboard as an illustration, and, for 
a lesson in attention and accuracy, have them draw the diagram 
from dictation as follows, being careful to give directions slowly, 
concisely, and not to repeat them if possible : 

Bisect the back edge of the paper ; place the corner of the 
ruler at this point, so that the short edge of the ruler will coincide 
with the back edge of the paper ; along the edge of the ruler, place 
a point four inches below the point of bisection. Place points 
directly opposite on the right and left edges of paper. Connect 
the three points w^ith ruler, having the six inch mark rest upon the 
middle point. This middle point shall be the middle point of a two 
inch line. Draw the line. Place the corner of ruler at the right 
end of this line so that the short edge of ruler shall exactly coincide 
with the line, and, beginning at the right end of line, let fall a

in length. 

Beginning at the upper end of this line set off a one-fourth 
inch space, and below this point four two inch spaces. The point 
one-fourth below the horizontal line is point No. 1, the point two 
inches below Xo. 1 is point Xo. 2 ; below Xo. 2 is X'o. 3 ; below 
Xo. 3 is X'o. 4.. 

From the lower end of this line draw a perpendicular two 
inches to the left ; connect the left ends of two horizontal lines, 
placing and numbering points as before. Connect points X'o. 1, 
extending the line one-fourth of an inch to the right and one-fourth 
inch to the left. Connect points Xo. 2, extending the line two and 
one-fourth inches to right and left ; draw a corresponding line 
through points Xo. 3 ; connect right ends of lines extending 
throuofh Xos. 2 and 3 : connect the left ends of these lines. 

Connect points X'o. 4, extending the line one-fourth of an inch 
to right and left. 

On the line extending through points Xo. 2, place points a 
one-fourth of an inch from each end ; place corresponding points 
on line extending through Xo. 3, and connect opposite points. 

Construct similar margins on right and left sides of upper 
square ; and on the square below the middle square. 

On the upper horizontal line place a i)oint one-fourth of an 
inch from the right end. Join this point with point Xo. 1 ; cut all 
corners of all margins in like manner. 




Transfer the dniwiiig u))on card-ltonrd to a scnle of two inches 
to three inches, or the making of u three inch cube. 

Have the clarfs tell along which lines to crease for folding. 
This should be done alonj^ the edge of the ruler with the point of a 
sharp knitc, drawing the knife toward you in a cutting position and 
cutting the card-lwmrd half way through. 

Now with the shears cut along the outer edges of the whole 
diagram. Then cut away corners of margins. Fold so that the 
creases shall l)o on the outside and the margins inside. 

Spread a thin conting of glue upon the outside of margins, and 
glue carefully together, one side at a time.

Place a point on the left edge four inches from the back left 
corner. Place a point directly opposite on the right edge. 

Place a point midway between points.

SERIES No. 3. 



USEFUL ABTICLES IN CABDBOABD. 



The object of this series is to place in the hands of teachers, — 
who cannot o])tain permission, time, place, tools or material for 
teaching wood-work, — a series of Manual Training lessons that may 
be practically followed in any school-room. The series is also an 
excellent preparation for introducing the pupils to the real working 
drawings needed in advanced work in wood and iron. Thus, when 
they come to the higher work, they will have a very fair idea of 
what is needed. 

The drawings as in the preceding work, are for the help of 
teachers, who can make their models from them. The pupils should 
l)e taught to make drawings from these models ; then models from 
their drawings.

SERIES No. 4, 



The work cinbodied in this .series of models is the most im- 
portant of all to the pupil. Eleven years is about the average age 
of pupils who are able to l>egin it, but it would not be right to say 
that all of that age would be able to do the work, nor would it 
be pi'oper to exclude all pupils who are under that age, for 
many are more apt at the age of nine than others at the age 
of fourteen. This depends greatly upon inlieritance, natural bright- 
ness and environment. At this i)articular age character is easily 
moulded ; the hand and eye easily trained, and thoughts easily 
directed. Every pupil should be allowed to proceed with the work 
as fast as he can, and do excellent work, for every one should be 
kept at his best all the time. 

THE WORK. 

With this particular work, the' possibilities for all around 
development are greater than in any other form of Manual 
Training, therefore it is the best form for public school work. In it 
there are a greater number of healthful exercises taught than are 
emlwdied in any other work. There are no harmful exercises. 

117 



118 SLOYD. 

The articles made are such as to embody the exercises in the 
order of their simplicity, and can be so arranged as to fit the daily 
growth of the pupil. 

With careful teachinir of the use of tools there is a natural ten- 
dency towards neatness and accuracy, which cannot be said of all 
kinds of work that could be used for manual training pui'poses. 

It brings a pupil face to face with himself, aiid he sees his weak- 
nesses and his good qualities as he never saw them before. 

These elements of character which Manual Training should 
develoj), such as independence, order, neatness, respect for the dig- 
nity of intelligent labor and a love for work in general, are funda- 
mentally established, and there is an awakening: of a lively interest 
in all subjects that pertain to scientific and skillful work and thought. 
Another important fact is, that one bectmies more generally skillful 
in this work than in any other, and the exercises performed are 
fundamental in teaching and i)erforming all other kinds of work 
that could be used for manual training purposes and which should 
follow this. 

THE TOOLS. 

The knife is the tool with which more articles can be made than 
with any other, hence a greater number of exercises can be performed 
with it. It is also more universally known and used than anv other 
tool. 

If any one makes an article with a knife, he can claim that the 
work was solely his own, for the tool was held and ffuided by his 



SLOYD. 11 J) 

own hand, and the eye was exercised in judging of surfaces and 
curves ; but when he makes an article, using the plane where a knife 
could have l>een used, he can claim hut part of the work as his own, 
for the cutting blade of the plane was held and guided to a great 
extent by the stock of the plane. This is why the knife is the fun- 
damental tool in Slovd work. 

• 

Messrs. Chandler and Barlwr, 17 Eliot St., Boston, Mass., 
have with great care prepared a bench and a full list of tools, which 
are recognized l)y all teachers as the best that can be had and are 
sold at a very small profit. 

Never use a poor tool, and always keep tools in excellent 
cutting condition. Never attempt to teach the use of them until 

vou have learned to do it readilv voursolf. 

»■ * »• 

Use tools of common size ; for l)oys who are old enough to do 
the work are able to handle the ordinary tools, and thev are more 
steady in the hands than smaller ones. 

The following tools should be kept at every l)ench : a knife, a 
jack-plane, a smoothing-plane, a marking-gauge, a tri-square, a 
two foot rule (in one piece), a pair of steel conn)asses and a pencil. 

All the other tools except the cross-cut and si)littin«r-saws should 
l)e kept in a cabinet with a glass front, with slanting shelves and 
apartments for each tool. The cross-cut and splitting-saws should 
l>e hung on a rack near where the sawing is done, and all tools that 
are not at the l)enches should be <riven out l)v the teacher or some 
pupil appointed for the otiice. The grindstone, chopping-block 



120 



SLOYD. 



and sjiw-horses should he in a phice where they will be out of the 
way of the benche.s. 

For the drawing the Milton Bradley kit is the l>est in the 
market and serves the purpose very well. 

Six sets of ffood drawinc: instruments are enouojh for a class of 
twenty-tive. They should be given out by the teacher and kei)t 
with the paper at his desk. Sand-paper should be used as sparingly 
as possible and should be given out by the teacher. Grades No. 1 1-2 
and 1-2 are the best for the purpose. 

After the general instruction has been given to the class, indi- 
vidual teaching should be given in the sharpening, care, and use of 
the tools. 

Seats for the class should be arranged in front of the teacher's 
bench and drawing board, where he can perform exercises that can 
be as well taught in class as with individual instruction. 

All tools should be kept dry, no rust being allowed to 
corrode them. During the vacation months they should be wiped 
with oiled waste, wrapped in oiled paper, packed in cases, and 
put in a dry place. 

Any first class cari)cnter or cabinet-maker can give to a 
teacher all necessary instruction in the sharpening, use and care 
of the tools. 



MATERIAL. 

It has been found through years of experience and careful olv 
servation that wood is best adapted for work in Manual Training for 



SLOYD. 121 

pupils in the upper Grammar grades. It can be easily obtained, it 
offers the right amount of resistance to the tools and hand ; the 
pupils become interested in finding where the ditferent woods 
gi'ow, and the study of the nature, growth and general appear- 
ance of trees gives a basis for the study of design. 

In the analysis of this series the diflferent kinds of wood 
that are best adapted for the work are given. 

Great care should be used to select wood of the best quality, 
straight grain, good coloa*, kiln-dried ; and when selecting white- 
wood take that which is free from sap. It is a good plan to 
purchase enough at one time to last a year, if it can be stored 
in a dry place. 

THE ROOM. 

Many ask if this kind of Manual Training can not be taught 
in an ordinary school-room, and the work done on a common 
school desk. This, however, is not practical. 

A special room on the lower floor or in the basement, if dry, is 
the best place for the work. The room should be at least thirty 
feet square and well lighted from opposite sides. 

In setting the benches plenty of room should be allowed for 
passage ways, for the sawing of lumber, 'and enough between 
benches so that the pupils need not come in contact with each 
other while w^orking. 

It is very desirable to have black-boards around the room, for 
drawings explanatory of the construction of plane figures, (lo.>crip- 
tions of parts of tools, positions of the body while working, etc. 



122 



SLUYl). 



Mention has already been made of the seats arranged in front 
of the teacher'8 bench and bhick-board. This is a very important 
feature and much <rood teachin«: can be done on account of it which 
could not l)e done as well in any other way. 

The teacher should meet his class here at least once a week to 
talk over with them the work in general, to lecture on woods, tools, 
etc., and to explain different exercises with the tools and 
instruments. 

A cabinet should be provided for the teacher's models, and in a 
side room, fitted with broad shelves, should be placed the finished 
work of the pupils. In another room there should be lockers for 
each pupil arranged in sections, each section to contain twenty-four 
lockers. A convenient size for each locker is twenty-two inches in 
height, ten inches in width and fourteen inches in depth. One door 
can serve for three lockers. These should contain the pupil's 
drawing kit, suit and unfinished work. These lockers are an im- 
portant feature, for it helps in a great degree to teach neatness 
and order. 

THE MODELS. 

The teacher in Manual Training should consult with the 
teacher in design, and be careful that the models from which 
the pupils work are articles of real worth, beautiful in shape. 
]Many practical persons who have artistic tastes rightly criticize the 
models which are used in many Manual Training Schools. Other 
{)ersons, disregarding the necessary and fundamental exercises in 
making the objects, would simply teach ornamentation. This, 



lni\vr\rr, i- ;i wToiio' i 111] )r«'^-i()i 1 t'or ))U|)iU l<» toriii dt" w li:it i^ 
inc-t NalunMc in an (inj«'ct. Ai::iin llici'f .nr tlm-f who 1:0 to 
tho other extreme. Some would have no ornamentiitioii at all, 
not even on useful parts, while others would over-ornament to the 
extent of sacrificing useful parts. 

There is, however, a happy medium, which can be maintained 
by ornamentino; useful parts, making them none the less useful 
but more beautiful. 

Never make a model ugly in shape for the sake of teaching 
an exercise. It would be better to go on to the next model 
and in the meantime invent something useful and pretty to 
contain that exercise. 

Finally, there should be a variety of shapes, and in the series 
there should be a number of models having such convex surfaces as 
are most graceful and cannot be made with instruments in a 
mechanical way but must be drawn and made free hand. This 
might be called modeling in wood. It tests and educates the 
eye and hand in a wonderful degree. 

MARKING. 

This is one of the most difficult tasks that a teacher has to 
perform. It is sometimes hard to decide how to mark. The 
teacher is supposed to know, all the time, the quality and amount 
of work that is being done on each model on which the class is 
working, and as he passes from 1)ench to bench he can so w%atch 
the work that he can easily pass his judgment on the workman- 



124 



SLOYD. 



ship and faithfulness of the pupil. Teachers have to accept work 
from some pupils that he would not accept from others. For in- 
stance, here is a l)ov who has inherited a strong tendency towards 
skillfulness in the use of tools, and it is quite easy for him to do 
the work in an excellent manner, but he should be kept at his very 
best all the time and show steady improvement. The duty of the 
teacher, here, would be to make the right sort of a leader of him, 
encouraging him to do extra work in the way of invention, and 
helping to teach those who need special instruction. 

Here is another pupil who is naturally dull and has inherited 
no tendency towards skillfulness. It would be impossible for him 
to equal the other in his work, l)ut if he has done his best after 
having been shown his deficiencies and has made another trial, his 
work should be accepted, even if not up to the standard of excel- 
lence that the average pupil can make. 



LECTURES AND REFERENCE BOOKS. 

The teachers work should bv no means be confined to teachinjr 
the use of tools and making models. The lectures that he gives 
should interest his pupils in the study of the history of tools, and the 
nature, use and manufacture of metals. This will lead to a closer 
study of General History, Literature, Geography, Geology, and 
Phvsics. 

He should be able to refer his pupils to books upon these 
sul)jects, and in class have them relate what they have found. Great 



SLOYD. 125 

care should be taken in teaching the correct positions of the body 
while handling the tools, and illustrating how the body is developed 
by right exercises and injured l)y wrong exercises. 

GENERAL HINTS. 

Never try to help a pupil by doing his work for him. 

A period of two hours twice a week will keep the class in- 
terested and the hand will not forget from one period to another. 

The benches and tools should be inspected before and after each 
lesson. 

The models should be given to those who have made them, at 
the close of the school vear. 

Keep plenty of good surgeon's plaster and bandages on hand, 
for accidents with the knife are likely to happen. 

When a certain decree of excellency has been reached bv the 
pupils, let them ornament some of the later models with api)ropriate 
designs of wood carving. Encourage pupils to have tools and a 
bench of their own. 

The best w^ay to proceed with the work is to have the pupils 
make a working drawing from the teacher's model, and then from 
that drawing make his model. 

A good way to examine the pupils would be to show them the 
new exercise that is contained in their next model and let them in- 
vent a model embodying that exercise, making the working 
drawing: of it first ; or the teacher could make a drawinir of the next 
model and have the pupil work from it. This could be done once 
or twice during the year.

SERIES No. 5. 



The different kinds of work embodied in this series of models, — 
namely advanced Cabinet work, Wood-carving, Staining, Varnishing, 
Designing, Drawing, — and the success that has accompanied the 
experiment, help, in a great degree to solve the problem as to how 
Manual Training should be taught so as to place it on a practical 
and an educational basis. 

A pupil at the lathe, finds the work much different from what 
has gone before, he not only holds and guides the tools ; but the 
material with a mighty power behind it, is driven at a speed of three 
thousand revolutions a minute against him, and he sees and feels 
that bodily harm may result, if care is not taken in tlje 
manipulation of the tools. He soon finds that it takes courage as 
well as skill to be able to do good work in turning. 



THE EQUIPMENT. 

The equipment for the room is as follows : A five-horse-power 
electric motor or steam engine, six first-class speed lathes, twelve 
benches, such as were used in the preceding work ; one wood 
carving bench extending the length of the room, and a full equip- 
ment of tools, with oils, shellac, varnishes and stains. With this 
equipment a class of twenty-five may be taught, if the models are so 
arranged as to embody the different kinds of work named above.
